1 Revised: May 2018

SANCTIONS Financial sanctions are imposed to combat terrorist financing, money laundering and development of weapons of mass

destruction. The United Nations (“UN”) and European Union (“EU”) are key international bodies that adopt international sanctions measures against countries and/or persons designated to be in violation of international laws. The process involves, Orders first

being passed by the EU and UN and then implemented in the UK. If extended to the British Overseas Territories, such Orders are then gazetted in the Cayman Islands. Breaches of these Orders may constitute an offence for which fines and/or criminal convictions may result as such sanctions will apply to everyone in the Cayman Islands.

To help Cayman financial service providers comply with sanctions, this document contains a list of sanctions currently in force (in

whole or part) in the Cayman Islands. The sanctions are listed by country with a brief summary of the relevant UK, UN, and EU Orders as well as some useful links associated to these Orders. This list should not serve as a substitute from referring to the relevant legislation.

The Cayman Islands Monetary Authority does not guarantee this list to be accurate, complete and up to date, therefore, it should

not be relied upon as the sole source of information. It is the responsibility of the financial service provider to keep itself informed and up to date with all applicable sanctions and changes thereto.
